First-principles simulations of warm dense lithium fluoride

Journal Article Driver, K. P. ; Militzer, B. - Physical Review. E

Here we perform first-principles path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) and density functional theory molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) calculations to explore warm dense matter states of LiF. Our simulations cover a wide density-temperature range of 2.08–15.70g cm^-3 and 10⁴–10⁹ K. Since PIMC and DFT-MD accurately treat effects of atomic shell structure, we find a pronounced compression maximum and a shoulder on the principal Hugoniot curve attributed to K-shell and L-shell ionization. The results provide a benchmark for widely used EOS tables, such as SESAME, LEOS, and models. In addition, we compute pair-correlation functions that reveal an evolving plasma structure and ionization processmore »« less

Equation of state and shock compression of warm dense sodium—A first-principles study

Journal Article Zhang, Shuai ; Driver, Kevin P. ; Soubiran, Francois ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

As one of the simple alkali metals, sodium has been of fundamental interest for shock physics experiments, but knowledge of its equation of state (EOS) in hot, dense regimes is not well known. By combining path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) results for partially ionized states at high temperatures and density functional theory molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) results at lower temperatures, we have constructed a coherent equation of state for sodium over a wide density-temperature range of 1.93-11.60 g/cm³ and 10³–1.29×10⁸ K. We find that a localized, Hartree-Fock nodal structure in PIMC yields pressures and internal energies that are consistent with DFT-MDmore »« less

First-principles equation of state and shock compression predictions of warm dense hydrocarbons

Journal Article Zhang, Shuai ; Driver, Kevin P. ; Soubiran, Francois ; ... - Physical Review E

We use path integral Monte Carlo and density functional molecular dynamics to construct a coherent set of equations of state (EOS) for a series of hydrocarbon materials with various C:H ratios (2:1, 1:1, 2:3, 1:2, and 1:4) over the range of 0.07–22.4gcm^–3 and 6.7 × 10³ – 1.29 × 10⁸K. The shock Hugoniot curve derived for each material displays a single compression maximum corresponding to K-shell ionization. For C:H = 1:1, the compression maximum occurs at 4.7-fold of the initial density and we show radiation effects significantly increase the shock compression ratio above 2 Gbar, surpassing relativistic effects. The single-peakedmore »« less
